    3 Things to Look Out for When Purchasing a Motorcycle Helmet

    By C.V. Mason Insurance Agency | Motorcycle ins | Comments are Closed | 18 July, 2016 | 0

    Identifying the safest motorcycle helmet can be rather easy, and only comes down to a few common factors. Here are some of those factors you should look out for when purchasing a motorcycle helmet. 

    As a consumer, you probably take out your phone, go online, and make sure the thing you’re buying is the best in its class. You’ve done this for toothbrushes, smartphones, computers, and countless other material goods. The “best” of something usually comes down to personal taste, and very rarely do you actually need “The Best” of anything. When it comes to motorcycles, however, purchasing the best helmet on the market may mean the difference between life and death. Here are three aspects of a motorcycle helmet you should look for to keep you safe before you hit the open road.

    1. DOT Sticker – If you only look for one thing, it should be this very sticker. Helmets that meet the Department of Transportation’s safety standards are the only ones you should consider and they’ll be marked with a DOT sticker.
    2. Thick Liner – The polystyrene inner liner of your helmet is made of a special styrofoam that is able to absorb and divert a huge amount of force – force that you may encounter should you be flung off your bike and hit your head. Your head may be thick, but it won’t match up well against solid concrete.
    3. What Makes You Comfortable – Once you’ve verified safety elements, you can focus on comfort. It’s a big part of safety. If your attention is on the way your helmet fits, rather than on the road ahead, it could spell trouble. Things like vents, breath deflectors, and face shields matter.

    A proper motorcycle insurance policy to go along with your safe motorcycle helmet is the best way to protect yourself on the road. Contact C.V. Mason Insurance Agency in Bristol, Connecticut. We will work with you to ensure you have the right amount of coverage, all at the right price to fit your budget.
